The rooms that we've stayed in ( 2 rooms for a family of 6) are very comfortable with tv, very family-friendly, the washroom is very clean even my kids love it , the place itself is quiet and very convenient since it is near the airport, train stations, walkable restaurants, ample parking for our van as well as those tour buses. The restaurant in the hotel serves also good food if you don't feel like going out. When we come back to Switzerland, I would still book again this hotel for my family.

The hotel was renovating while we were there and we enjoyed a new room. We weren’t able to get the room we asked for but staff accommodated us sufficiently. The quality of the rooms is excellent. If you come during 2025 you may have a few issues but staff work hard to make it right.

We stayed over night here before flying back to the States. Despite fact they are undergoing a massive renovation- everything was very nice. The room was clean and perfect for our family of four. I appreciate how they have the rollout already made for the kids. There was coffee in the room and water, which is always nice. It’s conveniently located right off the tram so it was super easy to get to and from the airport. Staff was nice and helpful. Walked to a restaurant for dinner.

I stayed at Novotel Zurich Airport Messe for a short transit of 9 hours. The location is great—super convenient for the airport. However, there was some construction work going on, which made the place quite dusty and filled the air with a strong metallic and paint smell. The room was decent for a quick rest, but the ongoing work definitely took away from the experience. Hopefully, once the renovations are done, it’ll be a much better stay.

10 mins to the airport and 1 min to a tram station. Hotel is clean, staff were respectful and professional. The hotel elevators are very tight, hardly fits 3 people. The hallways are very narrow. Ongoing construction outside the hotel, with scaffolding outside during my stay.

the location is unsafe and shady. the host is rude. we were charged an extra fee of 50 euros for late checkin of which we were not informed earlier. there is no lift and we had to carry our luggage to 2nd floor on steep stairs. since our check out time was 10am, the owner kept ringing our doorbell from 9am which was very disturbing. The building is very old. The heaters were not working. The list of disappointments is endless. Avoid this place.

Good hotel, perfect location.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The room was a bit outdated but it’s to be expected as they are under renovation. Our bed was comfortable and the room was large enough for all our luggage, the pull out couch and a crib. The best part of this place was it was located right on a tram line, which stopped right in front of the building making traveling around the city VERY convenient. Overall we had a very pleasant stay and would come back.
